Trivia in Edmonton

18 trivia venues are available in Edmonton, AB, CA

Edmonton's trivia scene is entirely independent. Not a single hosted company appears among the city's 17 active venues. Every quiz night here is run by the bar itself, which gives the scene a decentralized, community-pub character that mirrors Edmonton's famously neighborhood-oriented identity. Wednesday is the night that matters. Seven venues run simultaneously, creating a genuine choose-your-adventure across the city. The Sherlock Holmes chain contributes two locations, the downtown pub on 101A Avenue and the North outpost on 137 Avenue, both at 7 PM. Tavern on Whyte and The Druid Irish Pub hold down the Whyte Avenue and 104 Street corridors respectively. The Pint Public House on 109 Street, Frank's Community Pub on 99 Street in Strathcona, and The Den Pub down in Nisku fill out the Wednesday lineup. Thursdays are the next-biggest night with three options: Evolution Wonderlounge on Jasper Avenue in the core, The Black Dog Freehouse on Whyte Avenue (starting early at 6 PM), and MKT Fresh Food Beer Market on Gateway Boulevard. Mondays bring Birch & Bear Pizza on 106 Avenue, Duggan's Boundary Irish Pub on 88 Avenue, and Original Joe's out in the Rabbit Hill suburbs. The scene even offers weekend options. Boston Pizza on 106 Street and TELUS World of Science both run Friday nights, the latter being one of the more unexpected trivia venues anywhere (trivia at a science center, which frankly feels on brand). Whyte Avenue and the surrounding Old Strathcona neighborhood are the densest zone, but venues reach from the deep south suburbs to north Edmonton without leaving much of the city uncovered.
